Advent reading!

I have a Christmas tradition that I had since I was a child. I love reading Christmassy books in the run up to Christmas. I still do it now, and I’ve passed the tradition on to my daughter. When she was smaller we would read her a Christmas/winter themed picture book each night during advent bedtimes. Now she’s older we read Christmassy chapter books, like this Enid Blyton one (beautifully old fashioned!) and we also have the much more modern A boy named Christmas on our list. I’ve heard of some people wrapping up 24 Christmas books to be opened on each night of advent. I love this idea, but never got round to actually doing it!

I will share my fave adult Christmas reads in another post soon, so please watch this space!
